Baldur's Gate 3 | How to Defeat Ansur | Tactician Difficulty

hey guys how's it going just thought I'd come on here and show you guys a quick little how-to guide on how to defeat and xur the level 17 uh dragon living under Boulder's Gate uh this is on tactician mode uh uh and this is one of the key things uh you know I saw a lot of good information out there but there was nothing like concrete I didn't see any how-to tutorials so I figured I'd do one for everyone um I'm gonna show you guys some stuff that really helped me uh but first i'm gonna introduce the party uh I'm a level 11 Barbarian I'm going to be doing most of the damage uh throughout this whole encounter uh I respect Shadow heart as a life domain clerk so she's going to be doing most of the healing this encounter uh historian I respect him to be a ranger uh he actually he also has colossal Slayer so he's actually going to be able to do a little bit of damage however by doing so um he has really low accuracy so some of his attacks might miss but a little hit and Gail is going to be the bread and butter to this whole encounter he's got the globe of intervermability uh it's really going to help out um you know you're gonna create a barrier that create that makes creatures and objects inside immune to all damage uh you do have to be very careful on where you place this I will say that um I was just trying to do this video and I actually had to restart it because I accidentally put the globe too close to ensure himself uh so he was actually able to benefit uh from the globe as well uh so I'd say you know put it somewhere in right around here um or you know he's not gonna land and take advantage of it um for my aggro I'm using this uh Deva summons that shadowheart gets uh I'm gonna use him for most of the intact accounters to help draw the aggro because he does have this uh iconic fury it's going to allow him to retaliate with his uh breath weapon once per round so hopefully he lands his hits and he can jack he can aggro um if not I have lightning potions on myself in Shadow heart and that's just gonna allow us to be resistant to lightning damage because he does a lot of lightning damage uh you know it's not going to make you immune to lightning damage but it's gonna happen at least and you're not gonna be shocked electric or jolted which is very important for anyone who's going to be a melee fighter who's going to be doing most of your damage um and I say melee because he is Magic resistant um so just keep that in mind your magic spells are gonna miss most of the time so use honestly any magic on him just kind of pointless like I've used a few Fireballs on him and yeah they do like 20 30 damage but it's just not the same uh that your Barbarian Fighters are going to be able to do and I have a few Elementals over here that I utilized on the first encounter I just thought I'd use them again just to show you guys how I Incorporated them uh it turns out I actually didn't need them because I'm going to use another spell with Gail called telekinesis um it's gonna allow me to eat these guys into the abyss uh now however it does have a 60 chance to hit so there's the small chance it will miss uh but on my first run I got lucky and eated both of them so hopefully we can get that same luck uh now I do have Gail back here because he's a little squishy so hopefully he doesn't take any hits uh and a star is just kind of hiding be very careful on where you position these guys um I had to start in position over here earlier and when he does his fly attack and he lands he's gonna push him off same thing with Gail make sure he doesn't get too close to the edge here so just kind of make sure there's enough room for them to you know get thrown back uh there's another thing you can use for shadow heart her Ally spell right so I used uh the David you can use the genie the genie is to actually resist uh sorry he's not resistant he's immune to lightning damage uh but he does thunder damage which isn't the greatest uh but if you want a a summon that will basically never die during this encounter use the genie um I use the Dave of the first time without really thinking about it and he did well so I'm just gonna use him again um uh and another key thing is that I have Aid on everyone I use Shadow Hearts um what I use shadowhurst level five spell slot to cast eight on everyone so it gives them a plus 20 Health uh and it even accounts for the summons as well gives them 20 Health as well and then the protection from evil and good um I heard it was gonna be good for this fight uh just because this dragon is Undead and it's going to give us give them disadvantage on attack rolls however you're gonna see throughout the counter there's gonna be some things I do that you know make us lose it like for example I'm gonna rage and as soon as I rage that breaks my concentration I lose it Gail he's gonna class he's gonna cast the globe and he's gonna lose his shadow heart you know she might lose hers etc etc sometimes I think the only person that still had theirs at the end was the story all right uh so without further Ado uh I kind of went through everything uh we're gonna go ahead and get into it so again I'm gonna use this guy to hopefully aggro the boss and take some of the damage here we'll see oh didn't mean to uh draw the attack of opportunity there but there's a critical mess over down yeah see I was trying to get far enough away uh unfortunately it seems like it has a very big AOE um so unfortunately shadowheart was affected there but that's that's not a big deal all right so foreign [Music] Thunder and uh air of Darkness they actually do really good damage now uh spoiler alert a starring is a vampire lord here so uh he does that 1d10 uh necrotic but he's actually resistant to aquatic so it really doesn't matter that he does that but as you can see here let me open the combat log for you guys um you know he's going to be dull do some huge damage especially with his colossal Slayer um you know it was halved but you know these are some good hits oh I'm notified let's go as you can see concentration broken because I rage but that's fine uh we're going to want to take half damage when he hits us with a regular attack anyways it's all right it happens uh now again Shadow Hearts you know I hate you know I hate to be The Stereotype you know clerks are so much better than healing uh but her sole purpose than this and this encounter is just to heal um we don't really need it yet though uh hopefully she doesn't get knocked prone but I think we'll be fine either or uh this is what I used last time some of the spear for weapon it's not gonna do a lot of damage but you know everything helps right time to deal some punishments again you might as well not even cast spells on him because he's resistant to his spells there you go all right so this is the important thing with Gail uh we're gonna move him right here you always want to get good positioning because like I said he's gonna jump up and he's gonna fly last time I had him right here and Gail landed like right there like he's very close to dying uh which would have been bad so again just make sure that he's not um on it use telekinesis and as you can see you throw them to their death again just make sure that you got a good position with these guys oh that's different okay you know the three other times I've done this encounter he's always slammed up here so uh that's cool that's going to make the encounter slightly different uh see how different here in a second honestly we should probably just stay right here uh because he's gonna slam back the next round but he's shocked so he can't go far anyways so he's actually gonna have to stay right there uh we'll move him up here what's up oil of accuracy is always good give him that extra little bit of accuracy that he needs that was unfortunate yeah I mean you know starring does some good damage here as a ranger come on can't stay idle I'll strike you down there we go some decent damage little thing are gonna invoke the attack of opportunity so we'll just run back over the ways yeah I need shadowhurst to heal Gail because he actually took a huge bone player I need him alive at all costs oh no dang so and that's why you really don't want Gail to take damage because he lost his concentration when uh all this lightning damage hitting back here so that's unfortunate because that was my only other uh level five spell slot actually oh you can only do it outside combat yeah I kind of messed up and I summoned him I really don't need him but that's fine because we have another thing that we can use here can banish him which is fine that's gonna work he's gonna be banished for a few turns foreign now it's important that you don't go too crazy on this because he gains resistant to pretty much everything uh so I wouldn't I wouldn't use incredibly too much the attacks you're gonna Miss but sometimes you can get a lucky hit sometimes and what I'm doing here is I'm grouping everybody up for when it's Gail's turn I see my attacks are being cut in half here but still every little damage counts he's still banished it's fine oh Shadow heart nobody needs healed I mean yeah there's some other things you can do with her but I really don't need anything else done this is where we're gonna use the globe you have to be very careful uh because earlier I accidentally cast it too far up and he actually benefited from the uh the globe make sure you don't do that whatever you do make us all invulnerable these guys that Dash up and hopefully they'll draw the aggro when he freelance open and that's why I use the globe as you can see uh it's intense you know all right so one at a time here we'll send them out everybody's still in the globe so that's unfortunate all right well I'm lightning resistant so I'm not too worried about it here I can draw it if I hit and again that's with being resistant to lightning you know it's pretty decent well he's a vulnerable we're invulnerable it's fine oh damn it oh we got knocked out oh he's gonna take some damage though not a lot whatever he's gonna reposition him so he doesn't too crazy yeah he's gonna be useless this round foreign I wonder I'm gonna just see if I can banish him while he's in there oh that was a mistake that was a mistake that was a concentration spell oops yeah unfortunately we lost our globe but I think that's fine uh we're gonna be able to kill him this round ah five I'll flew to a bad spot let's start just far enough away another my boy all right and yeah that's how you beat azur on you know we're on tactician mode uh this is relatively easy uh you know a few highlights um you know definitely use those lightning resistant potions um make use of telekinesis with a wizard and use the globe for you know the invulnerability and that's gonna completely negate his ultimate attack
